This study investigated the effect of a diet enriched with the feed additive “ProBioKorm” on the digestion process in rabbits. During the experimental period, this probiotic additive was incorporated into the basal diet of rabbits, and its effects on nutrient digestibility, the functional activity of digestive organs, and the intestinal microflora were evaluated. The obtained results demonstrated that the use of a diet enriched with “ProBioKorm” activates digestive processes in rabbits and significantly increases the biological utilization of nutrients. In addition, normalization of the intestinal microflora, enhancement of enzymatic activity, and improvement of the overall physiological condition were observed. The results of the study indicate that the “ProBioKorm” additive can be effectively used as a dietary supplement in rabbit nutrition and justify its promising application in agricultural practice.
